About this home

THERE IS ALWAYS A CHECKLIST TO LIVE THE DREAM: “a location on the ocean side of Pacific Coast Highway, in desirable North Laguna Beach, close to the beach and town, an ocean view, easy single-level living, and a big plus is the home being updated and ready for move-in.” The conversation that follows is always about trade-offs and why this is an impossible checklist… until now. We present to you 1570 Via Corsica — an utterly charming, wonderfully updated, single-level ocean-view home located at the end of a small cul-de-sac on the last street before the oceanfront, with only four homes on the street, all in desirable North Laguna. Surrounded by homes that are many multiples in price, 1570 Via Corsica sits on a prominent, mostly flat, larger parcel with terrific front and rear space for outdoor living in a neighborhood where very few homes come to market. A classic mid-century rancher, the home has been reimagined and updated for modern living. The gorgeous kitchen, designed with a focus on functionality, is replete with top-shelf Wolf, Bosch, and Thermador appliances. The floor plan flows effortlessly from the ocean-view living room through the dining room to the expansive kitchen. Even with the thorough update, care was taken to preserve the character of the house while creating a delightful, modern feel: a new Dutch door welcomes you into the home from the cozy covered front porch; original oak floors gleam; two fireplaces warm both the living room and dining room; interior doors feature stunning contemporary classic-style hardware throughout; and the wonderfully updated baths nod to the original charm of the home. All of this in a home with a privileged location — steps to iconic Crescent Bay Park and just a few more to Crescent Bay Beach, a wide sandy beach that is one of the true treasures of this stretch of the California coastline. Equipped for year-round living but equally perfect as a lock-and-leave vacation home, 1570 Via Corsica is truly a treasure among Laguna Beach properties. Perfectly located, wonderfully updated, and a check next to every box on that “impossible to find” list — 1570 VIA CORSICA IS THE ONE!

Cons

MLS Listing Discrepancy: Lot size discrepancy between mls listing and other public or private record. mls listing lot size in square feet =7405, other record lot size in square feet = 7520.
Original Construction Year: Built in 1956, despite extensive updates, the underlying structure's age may imply potential for unseen maintenance or infrastructure considerations not explicitly covered by cosmetic renovations.
Absence of Central Air Conditioning: The property description does not mention a cooling system, which could be a significant comfort drawback during warmer months for a luxury property in Southern California.
Limited Interior Square Footage for Price Point: At 1909 sqft, the interior living space might be considered modest by some buyers given the multi-million dollar price tag, which is primarily driven by the premium location and views.
